The Moxa IMC-21GA-T is a rugged Gigabit Ethernet-to-fiber media converter that bridges 10/100/1000BaseT(X) copper to 100/1000Base fiber via an SFP slot. Rated for -40 to 75°C operation, it’s built for harsh industrial and outdoor deployments where you need Gigabit performance plus the flexibility to select the right SFP for your distance and fiber type.
Why We Love This Product
- Gigabit-ready conversion (10/100/1000 to 100/1000) supports modern bandwidth needs
- SFP slot gives you flexibility for fiber type and distance—swap optics, don’t swap hardware
- -40 to 75°C rating suits outdoor cabinets, roadside, and harsh edge environments
- Strong choice when you want fiber resilience without committing to a fixed optic
How Our Customers Use It
- Extending Gigabit Ethernet from a switch to remote equipment over fiber
- Linking IP cameras, wireless APs, and edge compute devices across long distances
- Upgrading legacy copper runs to fiber to reduce EMI-related downtime
- Outdoor/edge deployments where temperature swings require industrial-rated hardware
Choosing Tips
- Choose IMC-21GA-T when you need Gigabit capability and a -40 to 75°C rugged temperature range
- If your environment is indoors and milder, the non-T IMC-21GA may be sufficient
- Pick the SFP based on your fiber type (single-mode vs multi-mode) and required distance
